How to make good habits of children: -When children change their habits by considering their parents as standards, then teaching them good habits and implementing them ourselves gets included in the list of our responsibilities.
Children always adopt their habits by considering their parents as their standards. We often hear them saying, Papa also does it, that’s why I did it like this. Mama also does it, that’s why I am doing it. So teaching good habits to children and implementing them ourselves gets included in the list of our responsibilities. Let us know some good habits which are essential for the development of our growing children.
let them play outside
Often we take the help of mobile phones to entertain children. As soon as we see them interfering in our work, or see them getting upset while eating, we immediately put the phone in our hands. The phone has become another name for them to play. Why not teach them our games? Should they be taught to find the ball by rolling in the mud of an open field? There cannot be a better medium than this to infuse energy into their body and keep it in shape.
Teach to see quality, not brand.
The habit of exaggerating brands often in the family can narrow the mindset of our little ones. Don’t tie the things they buy to a particular brand, eg, ‘clothes are only good from this brand,’ or ‘toys are only good from this brand.’ Get them quality stuff. Explain these reasons to them while shopping.
Always eat food together
Eating together teaches our children three things –
- It maintains the thread of love. Instead of eating something different, the same food creates a feeling of eating for everyone.
- Helps in listening and understanding each other. No matter how busy you are, it should be tried that at one time the whole family eats together.
Teach the habit of drinking water frequently
Our body is made up of 70% water and our physical functions depend on water. Consuming water keeps the body healthy and is a source of energy. Develop the habit of drinking pure and clean water in children. Explain to them how much water they should drink. Keep water in a bottle (pretty and big) and reward him for finishing the day.
Teach how to say ‘sorry’ and ‘thank you
Humility is the basis of makeup. Teach children to be humble. Big or small, teach everyone to say sorry for small mistakes and thank you for doing good work. Always behave politely yourself. Never speak ill of anyone in front of children.
Teach cleanliness
The younger we are taught the importance of cleanliness, the better it is for our children. And the first step is to keep yourself clean and start by keeping your things clean. Encourage them by giving them a nice reward for cleaning the room or cupboard.
Please help
Teach children to always extend a helping hand. Especially teach them to help the elderly and behave well. Tell them to respect elders and the best way, is never to abuse elders yourself and respect them.
Teach the importance of time
Make it a habit to do every work and action at the right time. With this, their body will also run according to a clock and they will understand the importance of time. Like always reaching somewhere on time, getting up on time, playing on time etc.
Learn to work hard
Never let your children develop the habit of getting work done while sitting. Don’t teach yourself to depend on anyone for your small needs. Do your own work, which children will also follow.
Reading habit
The good habit of reading should be inculcated in the child as early as possible. It is not necessary to have books, any item purchased from the market, or any packet, reading the content written in it is also included in good habits. Tell the story to your children yourself and teach them to read too.
